The BASIS North Central Boosters is a non-profit 501(c)(3) public charity organization that offers support to the BASIS San Antonio Primary- North Central Campus. Our organization creates a sense of community among BASIS families and staff by providing services, volunteering for school events, teacher appreciation, and raising funds for classroom supplies and equipment.

While PTAs are part of a national organization with dues that partially go to state and national PTA offices, we are completely independent and 100% local. That means:

• All membership dues stay on our campus
• We are run entirely by BASIS North Central families
• We are not bound by national PTA rules or politics
• We customize our efforts based on what our teachers, students, and families need

This gives us more flexibility to respond to our school community quickly, creatively, and directly.

When you join the Boosters, you’re investing directly in your child’s school experience. Here’s what your membership supports:

• Teacher appreciation and morale
• Classroom and campus needs not covered by BASIS.ed
• Fun, family-friendly events
• A stronger school community

It’s a small contribution that makes a big difference.  

Benefits include:

• advance volunteers sign up for Lunch Bunch and other events
• a vote during general meetings
• discounts on select spirit gear
• Annual membership $20 Individual parent or guardian
• Annual business sponsorship $100

While we’d love for you to volunteer for the Lunch Bunch or other events, there’s no obligation to sign up. We understand that everyone’s schedule is different.  Just being a member and your support is greatly appreciated.

BASIS North Central Boosters, Inc. partners with BOONLI to provide a secure, fast, and easy-to-use online lunch ordering platform for parents and guardians.  All students must have an account to place an order.

We use third party vendors; therefore, monthly orders are made 2 weeks in advance.  

*Notifications will be through Parent Square and BOONLI emails*

The lunch programs at Texas BASIS Charter Schools differs between campuses. At North Central, the Boosters, entirely run by parent volunteers, do not receive any funding from the National School Lunch Program or similar sources. As a result, the cost and selection of lunches may vary depending on the vendors selected.  

No. The Annual Teacher Fund (ATF) is managed by BASIS.ed and supports teacher salaries. The Boosters are a completely separate nonprofit and cannot access or direct how ATF funds are spent. Our work focuses on appreciation, enrichment, and campus community life.
